Saddle Fitting Services

With a (USA) Certification in Saddle Fitting and as a (UK) Qualified Saddle Fitter under the Society of Master Saddlers, Eleanor Whitehead has eleven years of experience in fitting saddles in the Auckland region. As the only point of contact between your seat and the horse, getting the correct fit is one of the most important aspects to get right in any equine partnership. It is a massive contributing factor to whether the horse and rider are comfortable, and in turn, how successful they are in any given discipline. We aim to work with the latest technologies and knowledge available to ensure we get the best fitting saddle for both you and your horse.
